187. Magic Merchant

Surdak rode on the horse, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart, the exchange rate between the magic crystal and the gold coin dropped a little, which was not good news for him, mainly because he still had more than two hundred unpolished magic cores in his pocket, although these magic cores would not be able to open magic crystals one by one, but they were also the kind of valuable goods that would produce magic crystal fragments without magic crystals.

At this time, the exchange of magic crystals in the imperial capital actually fell, and the overall calculation of more than two hundred magic cores was at least more than one hundred gold coins.

Listening to the middle-aged woman at the airport dock, if the plane stationmaster continues, it is very likely that the magic crystal will continue to depreciate, in this regard, Surdak deeply believes that after all, a demon is destined to have a magic crystal, on the battlefield, as long as the evil ghosts are continuously killed, these magic crystals will continue to be transported to the Green Empire, then of course these magic crystals will continue to depreciate.

Surdak felt that at this time, the magic crystal in his hand should be sold as soon as possible, and it might be more reliable to exchange it for gold coins.

As the saying goes: antiques in prosperous times, gold in troubled times, it is always right to turn into a box of gold coins.

But first, these cores need to be polished into magic crystals, so after Surdak decided to enter the city, he went to a jeweler shop and asked the jewelers to polish all these cores. For such a thing as exchanging magic crystals for gold coins, it is more reliable to find a bank to do it.

Thinking of this, Surdak reached out and patted Guborima's buttocks. ministry, motioning for it to go faster.

Outside the city of Ivorson there are endless wheat fields, which are golden at this time, and some laborers are standing in the wheat fields under the scorching sun to harvest wheat, and they stack the whole bundle of wheat into high haystacks, in which it is like a series of makeshift tents, and a group of children and some wanderers run to the fields to collect the ears of wheat.

As long as they don't steal ears of wheat from the stacks of wheat and don't pull the wheat that has not been harvested from the wheat fields, the practice of the homeless people is protected by the laws of the Grimm Empire, which means that those homeless people who have no land are not allowed to pick up ears of wheat in the farmer's field, and the farmers are not allowed to drive them away, and the main reason for this is to give the homeless people living at the bottom of the society around the country some hope to live.

In this harvest season, as long as you are diligent, it is not difficult for a person to pick up two baskets of ears of wheat a day.

If you dig some sweet potatoes from the wild, collect some rice in the woodlands between the mountains, and the year's living rations can be easily obtained, as long as you have a shelter from the wind and rain, even if you are poor, life can still go on, even if you are penniless.

In the distance, there are also patches of sunflowers, these sunflowers need to wait until autumn to harvest, now growing in the fields everything is so thriving, the farmers here do not grow these sunflowers to make spiced melon seeds, here the sunflower seeds are used to extract oil, and in the autumn, the whole plate of sunflowers will be cut down, and then transported to the threshing floor by the scorching sun, the harvested melon seeds are sent to the oil mill that specializes in oil extraction.

This is the Grimm Empire, which is full of the breath of life, no matter where you are, even if you are penniless, there will always be hope to live.

Surdak's mind was filled with this idyllic scene, maybe the land in the city of Highlandsa was more fertile than the city of Ewalsen, maybe he bought a piece of land at the foot of a hill or by the lake and ran it into a farm estate, maybe it would be his new life.

……

At the beginning of this month, a conflict broke out between magicians and upper-class nobles in the imperial capital of the Grimm Empire, although this conflict did not spread to the entire Grimm Empire, but the irreconcilable contradictions between magicians and upper-class nobles surfaced more clearly, and the relationship between magicians and nobles continued to deepen, and the relationship continued to deteriorate, which also brought some of the magic industries of the Grimm Empire to a standstill.

All the while, the civilians of the Grimm Empire wanted a. The only way to become a nobleman at night is to awaken your own magic pool at the age of twelve magic awakening ceremony and become a magician with elemental affinity, so that while obtaining the magic apprentice badge, you will also become a magical nobleman of the Grimm Empire.

Apprentices will enter the junior magic academies around the world for free, and if they perform well enough, they can continue to study at the Higher School of Magic with a letter of recommendation from their mentors, and there are several ways for magicians to graduate from the High School of Magic:

The first is to enter the Magic Guild or the Magic Research Institute to become a magician, only the most outstanding magicians can become magicians, in fact, this proportion is still very large, almost sixty percent of the magicians who graduate from the high academy will be engaged in magic research.

The second is to join the army of the noble lords, become a member of the mage warband or become the manager of some magic workshops of the aristocratic family, such as those magic rune plate inscription masters, magic scroll makers, magic gem craftsmen, alchemists, magic potions, etc., the aristocratic world wants to recruit young magicians It is also a painstaking effort, many times it is nothing more than wealth, power and women.

The third is to join some private adventure groups and go on adventures around the world. The world is so big, I want to look everywhere, and the magicians who choose to take this path have a yearning for freedom in their hearts, in fact, less than ten percent of young magicians will choose this path.

It is because of Ryan. The conflict caused by Duke Bussman at the ball made the magicians of the Green Empire suddenly realize that these magicians were so unbearable in the eyes of the upper nobles, and the nobles of the traditional forces had never regarded the magicians and nobles as a kind of person, and these ancient nobles even looked down on the magicians and nobles.

As a result, a protest by the magician aristocracy quickly erupted and swept across the country.

In this way, the most direct impact on Surdak is that the maintenance work of the magic airship on the airport dock of Ivorson City has stalled, and the floating device of the magic airship needs to be overhauled by a professional magic rune master before each voyage to ensure that the floating device can operate normally during this voyage.

But now the magicians in Evorson City have participated in the general strike action held by the local magic union to protest Duke Ryan's unequal attitude towards magicians, so on the side of the airport dock, the route between Evorson City and Bena City will only be changed to once a week, if it is half a month ago, the airship that will go to Bena Province will be at least once every two days, after all, some of the materials needed by the Bena Legion are transported from Bena Province.

On his way back to the city of Ewalsen, Surdak heard from a furrier who was preparing to return to the province of Bena.

This fur dealer himself is a magical nobleman, but he is limited by talent, he does not have much talent in magic, after graduating from the Bednar Junior School of Magic, he graduated as a magic apprentice, and after so many years, he is only a second-level magician, and now he has opened a magic leather trading house in Bednar City, which is doing well.

The magic merchant was able to mingle with Surdak because he overheard Surdak speaking in the Bena dialect when he was on the road. Surdak also wanted to know more about Bena Province, so he chatted with the magic merchant all the way......
